All Data was taken from COVID-Live which is itself taken from the federally reported numbers. Discrepancies between state and federal numbers are common and generally known, however, given that these are the official figures numbers are taken at face value. No manual effort has been undertaken to correct these as that is a potentially endless and overwhelming task. Delays updating individual fields can occur often, such that the reported data is periodically incomplete during the day.

All values are current as of 16:07, 02 Jun 2022

Australian State populations were taken from the ABS Website and were accurate on 1^st Jan 2022.

Latest Australian Data

Using an estimated population size of 25,692,897, the total percentage of the Australian population confirmed as having been infected at some point currently sits at 28.59%, or one person in every 3.

Summary of Active Infections

% Active indicates how many of the total cases are currently active. Numbers are as reported by the States, which is known to be subject to changing methodologies at various points. Importantly, given problems with testing in many states, the number of active cases will be an underestimate. States which are yet to report daily numbers are highlighted with an asterisk.

Summary of hospitalisations

The % Cases Hospitalised column uses active cases with a 10 day offset and as such is a crude estimate. This is confounded by the difference in lag between exposure and hospitalisation for each strain. The % of currently hospitlised cases which are in ICU or being ventilated is also given, using a 1-day offset. Figures from the NT are as reported federally and these are highly divergent from state-reported figures. The reason for this is unknown. States which are yet to report are indicated with an asterisk.
